Rivals100 defensive end Kerry Murphy was in Tuscaloosa this past weekend for the Ole Miss game on an unofficial visit. Murphy, 6-foot-5, 315-pounds, has been to the Capstone before, but this was his first visit for a game in some time.

"I was excited to be going because it seems like I haven't been there for a game in a long time. It was a good visit and I had fun with my teammates and the other recruits. We just sort of hung out together and during warm-ups I talked to some of them about what they liked about Alabama. William Vlachos is really excited about Alabama and he's a cool guy and good player. We are friends," Murphy said. "The game was pretty exciting and it got crazy when Alabama won on the last play. That was cool to see everyone so excited about winning. The players were running around and the fans were going nuts. It was a great and loud environment. I had a good time."
